Much to my surprise, I was released from the hospital yesterday. I feel better, the breast clinically looks better, and the fluid output had continued to decrease dramatically. However, some of my labs held steady, one actually improved a bit and another was worse.
My surgeon gave me the great news that I could go home on IV antibiotics. Home health comes this morning. It's a two week gig.
I tested negative on two Covid antigen tests spaced 24 hours apart. Apparently this means I have had Covid in the past but do not have an action infection. So I had been taken out of isolation and was able to return home to enjoy my family rather than remain in isolation and then be masked until Brennan leaves.
So I am homebound other than medical appointments until Monday when my surgeon will reassess what activity level is then safe. I received special dispensation for a movie date with B and to cut off my hair and color these horrible roots. Just think of all the money I will save while I am bald!
Oh, I am also allowed to go on car rides. So if you want someone to keep you company while you run errands, I'm your gal. I just have to wait in the car.......
All in all, I'm a pretty happy girl to be home. I want to enjoy these last days with Brennan before he leaves for college. I want quality time with my whole family. I want to be able to have friends come by. I want to get better!
Yabba Dabba do reads like you’re going in the right direction, my friend, progress in motion and keep on going my friend this too is passing
